Do it for the “Money,” is my motto. At least right now, and specifically in regards to Jason French's hot new viral smash, “You Just Want My Money.” French, who recently joined Team Interscope, dropped the track online 12/15 and it’s already garnered 3.2m+ Spotify streams in the first month.
The reggae-infused pop track is inspired by the singer/songwriter’s beachy San Diego upbringing and, boy, does it simulate the sensation of wiggling your toes in the warm sand. Now if only I could get a pina colada at this silly excuse for a workplace.
Listeners certainly seem to have “Money” on their minds, as the vine hashtag & audio for #youjustwantmymoney has surpassed 40m impressions and has been re-Vined over 300k times. Interested yet? Give it a listen then, ya sheep-brain.
